About My Challenge

This year, I’m taking on the Push-Up Challenge and completing 3,307 push-ups in 24 days to raise awareness and funds for mental health in Australia.

 

Mental health affects people from all walks of life, and many individuals face challenges that often go unseen. By participating in this challenge, I’m not only pushing myself physically but also helping raise awareness, start conversations, and support services that provide vital assistance to those who need it most.

 

This cause is also personal to me. Like many people, I’ve faced my own struggles and difficult periods in life. Those experiences have shown me how important it is to have support, understanding, and access to mental health services when they’re needed. Taking on this challenge is my way of giving back, raising awareness, and helping others who may be going through similar challenges.

 

Every donation, big or small, helps fund mental health programs and support services through Lifeline. If you’re able to contribute, I’d greatly appreciate your support.

 

Thank you for helping me make a difference and supporting this important cause.

Supporting Lifeline

Lifeline is a national charity providing Australians who are experiencing emotional distress access to 24-hour crisis support, suicide prevention, mental health, and domestic and family violence prevention services.

Lifeline exists to ensure that no person in Australia has to face their toughest moments alone.

Our experience has shown us that it is through connection that we can find hope. That’s why we are available 24 hours a day to listen without judgement to anyone in Australia who is feeling overwhelmed, distressed, or experiencing a crisis. Each year, Lifeline receives over 1.3 million contacts to our crisis support services.

By supporting Lifeline, you are ensuring the Lifeline network has the critical technology, resources and people necessary to deliver crisis support, self-led support, and counselling services around the clock.
